Publication in New and Upcoming Writing is subject to selection criteria. Only writers and poets selected by us in Advanced workshops are published.
The Bombay Review Creative Writing Courses and Workshops are a series of specializations that you can take to become a great storyteller.
You will participate in mini MFA-modeled workshops/courses and master the techniques of good writers and poets.
Come to us with an idea, a love for reading and writing, and watch it grow to a beautiful piece of work, illustrated and published in one of the leading magazines of New York and Mumbai.
With our personalized mentorship, instruction, discussion, support, and feedback, you will open the doors to the world of literature; your literature, your writing.
The program is open to student writers interested in all forms, genres and themes of creative writing. You will receive practical guidance and instruction for your writing — so you won’t feel confused or overwhelmed, and you’ll know exactly what to do next, one word at a time.
The courses will walk you through critical aspects of storytelling, writing, and presentation. As you sit with us (or stand) while you write and hone an entire piece from beginning to end, you’ll leave us with your first published piece in a magazine, or is it the seventeenth?
Below are some of the covers of the magazine issues where your work is published – New and Upcoming Writing Editions.
